It's an internal function so you have to look into the C sources: it's
here under do_sample, but you'll have to follow all sorts of other
functions down the rabbit hole if you want to understand the whole
thing.

Please note that cross-posting is frowned upon in the R mailing lists  
and especially so when you do not give notice that you are doing so.
